Post Gall Bladder Surgery

Hi, I had my gall bladder removal Dec.17, 2008. How long does this take to heal my insides?? After surgery, I had developed "boils" on my stomach. Dr. said it was an allergic reaction to the pre-surgery wrap. I still have them. big ones. how soon do they clear up?? I went to the hospital on Dec.13, 2008.  The day after i went in, I had an endoscopy (where they put a camera inside and sucked 5 large stones out). Two days later had the gall bladder surgery. I was in the hospital for one week.  I'm finally home and I'm having to run to the potty. I can not sleep well at nite because I got to run to the potty. Is it normal to still feel weak?? I have My Granddaughter helping me heal. She is my little nurse... DR. has me on a FAT FREE diet. My granddaughter feeds me 3 times a day with 2 snacks. after all my meals i get awfully tired and have the urge to take a nap. I'm 66 Years old and I never had the urge to nap before. Is that normal?? Please comment back so i can know
